Re: How HTTP 2.0 mandatory security will actually reduce my personal security

For 1,2: How is this not orthogonal to the rest of the discussion?
For 3: I'm assuming you mean because the data is encrypted. You can MITM
this.

Just to be sure we're all on the same page here (because it seems that
we're not):.
  As I understand it, the proposal is:
    For web activity on the "open internet", if the scheme is https,
attempt to use http/2 over an encrypted, authenticated channel.
    For web activity on the "open internet", if the scheme is http, use
http/1 over an unencrypted, plaintext channel.
    For activity on a private network: use any combination of
{authenticated, unauthenticated}{encrypted, unencrypted}{http2,http1} you
desire.

Is there an objection to this?
